Man, I’ve still not put it on since. Don’t think I can even listen to the album leading up to it and then skip that track. Seeing Mastersystem pop up in a lot of AOTY lists as well and still can’t bring myself to put it on.

I will eventually, because he made a lot of good music and it should be listened to but it’s still quite raw. Occasionally drive past Queensferry and get a real feeling of sadness.

Floating in the Forth is one of my favourites. I loved it. I can’t handle it now. It is too hard.

I went to Rip it Up and was not expecting right at the end a whole section on Scott. Seeing the actual hand crafted artwork for their first four albums and his notes made me well up.

I don’t go through a single week without thinking about him.

Was listening to MOF earlier in the win, was pure wellin up throughout. Such an incredible record and so difficult to listen to now.
They’re playing this weekend at the bandstand for a homeless charity. Think there will be lots of tears

I’ve never been more drawn to TMOF - his lyricism has never been more relevant and it’s actually been a real comfort in recent times, maybe in a bit of a masochistic way since it’s still heartbreaking, but I don’t think I’ve ever had as good an understanding of my brain nor as much care for those around me. It’s a hard listen but more rewarding than ever.

This version of ‘Floating in the Forth’ is my favourite at the moment…

Looks like there might be plans for the band to continue…

'Looking to the future, Grant said he was still grieving but the band had plans to continue.

He said: "All of us are dealing with Scott’s death on a personal level. It’s been seven months, that’s a very short time.

“We do have something planned for next year which was meant to happen this year which we’ll hopefully announce at the start of the year.”’

The First Incident I’m guessing?

I would love it if they found a way for James Graham to front the band going forward. It would be a perfect fit and great on so many levels.

He’d be crying to much to manage it.
Poor lad.

Some Scottish artists (inc. Kathryn Joseph) are playing frightened rabbit stuff at sleep in the park in Glasgow.

Also donate if you can they do good stuff.

I’m really glad this exists (or will exist).

I don’t know if I’m going to be able to listen to it, at least not without breaking down into big, ugly tears over and over and over.
